Everyone over does it during the holidays, so no judgments when you walk away from the table suddenly looking like you're three months pregnant with a food baby. So now more than ever is the time to add jeans with an elastic feature to help your Christmas pig-outs. The LA Times got into some…

These days, starting a denim line seems just about as formulaic as making a Duncan Hines cake: get some organic cotton, mix in a celeb name, slap on a pricey label, and voilà! That's not quite the case with Jacob Åström, Tor Rauden Källstigen and Jakob Ohlsson, who decided to go the hard way…

Breaking news: Tommy Hilfiger is giving his two cents about the amount of jeans a woman needs. "Women only need one pair of jeans -- but they must fit," he told Breaking News. "There are pairs of jeans that are worth spending a lot of money on. Depends on the material. You wear…

"I gained about 8 pounds (which I am totally fine with, BTW), but one thing that is annoying me is the fact that my skinniestjeans simply won't button anymore. I can get them on and since they have a bit of stretch they look fine on my legs, but no amount of twisting and turning…

President Obama gave fashion critics something to talk about when he displayed a pair of "mom jeans" at a baseball game, Nicolas Sarkozy and his lovely wife Carla both donned denim for a recent trip to Egypt, and the Russian President, Dmitry Medvedev, chose jeans for a dinner date with Obama. Steve Jobs kept…

Many boys wear bad jeans. Not always, but it happens. Next time your boy goes denim shopping, tag along and keep him from making the same mistakes once again. Whether that boy is your boyfriend, your dad or any other male with whom you spend any amount of time, they'll resent you at the time…

INTERIOR, A NIGHT CLUB: An obviously dorky, wallflower-like girl, Stacey, stands alone awkwardly at the bar. Her ultra-hot friend, Tracy, walks up and joins her, sweaty from the dance floor. The music is blaring. Stacey: Tracy, you get so many guys. I just don't know how you do it! I can't even get a…

Forever 21 has just released a pair of dark wash, one-percent stretch skinny jeans for $9.50. Yes, $9.50. (I've been known to spend more on lunch!) Got to say, they've got the right amount of spandex stretch to be flattering, are in a great, go-anywhere wash and, on the model…

It goes without saying—the one item in your closet that's older than the latest "High School Musical" star? Probably your favorite pair of jeans. A new survey from the Lakeside Shopping Centre in Essex, England finds that Brits hang on to their jeans longer than any other piece of clothing, and that nearly…

I think we can all agree that we're so over the $300 price tag that certain denim companies shamelessly attach to plain old jeans. Not that we wouldn't pay a significant amount of money for the perfect pair of jeans that we'll wear everyday, but still, it's cotton people! Those profits must be amazing!

We've seen the grab-able booty wrought by Huit lingerie's padded butt panties. But never before have we seen denim that claims to give you a more voluptuous tush just from the fabric alone! Behold: Innovativa push-up jeans. They promise Beyoncé's booty at only $99 a pop! The Innovativa site sells lot…

They say ya gotta have a gimmick, and eco-designer Patricia Ordonez certainly has one down: Send her two pair of your ex's jeans and she will craft them (along with burlap and broadcloth) into a custom-made tote bag ($90) or duffel ($125). Kind of funny, but we're not sure we'd want to advertise all of…

Whoever came up with the phrase "so wrong it's right" was totally inspired by these jeans. The half-denim, half-nylon hybrid by Siwy is available online for an outrageous $242. Because we know you're so interested in buying these. [The Cut]…

A few weeks ago these hilarious "winking pants" went viral on the Internet, and everyone had a good laugh. Apparently, however, people actually want to wear Winkers and have their butts adorned with the cheeky eye prints. William Jones, the Washington state-based inventor of the pants, has been barraged with an onslaught of orders, and…

Australian jeans company Jeanswest has started installing cameras or "butt cams" in their dressing rooms, so women can figure out for themselves if their behinds look big in the jeans they're considering buying. Personally, I've never seen anything wrong with having a big butt, but this technology could come in handy. Most women would…

Do you guys remember when Guess jeans cost, like, $40 and your mom was all, "Sorry kid, I'm not made of money, forget about it," and stuff? Around the same time, jeans of the hole-y on purpose, paint splattered and bleached variety started popping up? Newspapers like The Daily Mail, Houston Chronicle and…

Elle UK has huge trend news for you: Everyone is wearing denim shorts right now! Umm, yeah, because it's summer. And people wear denim shorts pretty much every summer. Know what else people do with denim shorts on an annual basis? Look terrible in them. Too often, the styling is off and they're either too…

Have them expanded. (Like I was going to recommend some newfangled diet or exercise mumbo-jumbo!) A company called Denim Therapy has just launched a service where you send them the jeans that no longer fit and they, well, make 'em work for your body. Wondering how they give you more room? Check it…

Your search for the perfect pair of jeans is over! Want to know who makes 'em? You! indiDenim, a "virtual denim" brand, gives you the power to design your own pair. We aren't talking about picking dark blue over light; we're talking details from start to finish. The "design" process is pretty intense…

Here's my problem with luxury denim these days: I'm tired of the same old brands, but I'm also not likely to go and drop half a paycheck on couture Alexander McQueen jeans, nor buy into the latest celeb line either. Finally, here's a pair I can truly covet—Paul & Joe's new collaboration with Citize…

Simply Irresistible

Taking a page out of those girls you went to high school with who can't stop smugly posting every detail of their perfect lives on Facebook, Lady Gaga shaded America's youngest grandma Taylor Swift just perfectly on Twitter yesterday. It all started when Jaime King's unborn child's godmother tweeted about Gaga, using the preferred…

Oh look, it's hottest DILF alive, Ryan Gosling, making a rare appearance in public grabbing lunch in LA today. And what's that I see? In addition to his perfectly worn T-shirt (that collar is stretched just so), hoodie and leather jacket, the Gos is rocking a few faint letters on his knuckles, spelling out the…
